The 32GB SanDisk Extreme SDHC memory card claims to be the worldâ€™s fastest in its size and class category with 30MB per second read and write speeds. It also guarantees operation at extended temperatures ranging from minus 13 F (minus 25 C) to 185 F (85 C).

â€œThe market for entry to mid-level DSLR cameras is growing, and SDHC is becoming the de-facto card format for these devices,â€ said Susan Park, director, retail product marketing, SanDisk. â€œOur cardâ€™s 32GB of storage and up to 30MB/s read & write speeds enable DSLR users to shoot without worrying about storage or speed limitations.

She adds that the 32GB SanDisk Extreme SDHC card complies with the SD Associationâ€™s new Class 10 specification, which exceeds requirement for todayâ€™s high definition (AVCHD) video recording. The card offers a sustained write speed fast enough to ensure high-definition video recording and capacity capable of storing 160 minutes of full HD 1920×1080 pixels at 24Mb/s data transfer rate. The new card will ship in August.
